Dear Moses community,

I understand that there is the http://www.cs.umd.edu/~snover/tercom/
implementation of the translation edit rate and
https://github.com/jhclark/multeval script that wraps around it.

There's also the python implementation that looks rather cryptic partly
because i don't understand japanese: https://github.com/aflc/pyter

Looking at the pseudo code in
https://www.cs.umd.edu/~snover/pub/amta06/ter_amta.pdf (
http://pastebin.com/Z4KFeFhM)

There are several lines that are not so self-explanatory. Could someone
help to clarify what they mean?

At line 10 on http://pastebin.com/Z4KFeFhM, it says:

    Find shift, s, that most reduces min-edit- distance(h′, r)


*Does that "min-edit-distance" here mean levenshtein distance?*

Thanks in advance for the clarification and tips!

Regards,
liling
